Fast and AMAZING service!Came in today for a whitening procedure and I was amazed at how wonderful and delightful this staff was. I was taken care of, constantly monitored throughout the whole process, and was treated courteously and professionally. As such, this office has earned itself a lifetime patient. Furthermore, I am recommending this practice to all of my family and friends. Thank you Jackie, Sarah, and Dr. Kumar; Today you made going to the dentist an enjoyable experience!

Excellent. Very Caring Dr. Kumar is Gentle and a well educated man. He discovered things that my prior dentist missed and I always knew there was an issue. I did not have to tell him, one look and he Gasped with surprise that I have had this issue for a while. They are very attentive and I will not be surprised if his practice grows leaps and bounds if they continue with this level of service. Good staff and overall clean and pleasant office with both Suburban and Downtown location in Chicago which is both convenient to get too.~ B.D.

This was a great experience. And another "former LFHS student does good!"
Looks like a fun staff. Looking forward to my root canal......did I really say that!!
Thanks ~ Frank Q.

My experience with Smile More Today has been wonderful. They are professional in their approach and make me feel like the most importanter person there. But the best experience is what I have had at home; using the dental device, I have been able to sleep through a full night, 7 1/2 hrs. This is remarkable as I have not been able to sleep more than 6 hrs at any one time in more than 17 years. My apnea limited me to snoring and interupted sleep patterns for years; NO MORE. I am rested and feel more alert and alive than I have in a very long time, Thanks Dr Kumar and Jackie.~ W. Pearson

I went to Dr.Kumar after two recommendations from my office. I have not been to the dentist for a few years and was a little nervous about going to a dentist after not going for so long. Dr. Kumar and his entire staff made me feel at ease and was not judgmental at all at my long lapse in proper dental care. His biggest concern was the health of my teeth. After a deep cleaning my teeth feel great. He was gentle and the process was very comfortable. I would recommended Dr.Kumar to friends and family without hesitation. He is a great dentist who truly cares about his clients, his staff is friendly and professional and took care of all my insurance billing. A great and positive experience!!~ Thomas L.

Amazing place! Looks different and modern! Dr. Kumar is very nice! He took the time to inspect each tooth and removed a lot of tartar from my teeth. It was a lot! Very nice staff! Will come again!~ Maya P.

Although teeth are supposed to last throughout our lifetime, there are influences that affect them. Some factors may lead to the loss of a tooth or may necessitate the removal of all teeth. The focus then shifts to restoring full function and beauty to the face. For those who prefer a more stable restoration than what is possible with a traditional denture appliance, dental implants may provide the ideal solution to a missing tooth or teeth.

In many dental practices, the dental implant procedure is referred to a specialist. At Smile More Today, Dr. Kumar himself handles the entire implant process, allowing our valued patients to receive all necessary care under one roof. Dr. Kumar is extensively trained, having gone through an 8-month continuum in Dental Implants and Advanced Prosthetic Dentistry at the prestigious Implant Seminars Dental Program. To facilitate a smooth treatment process for even the most complex cases, we incorporate the use of 3D dental i-CAT CT scanning technology.

Dental implants are not just a replacement for a tooth, but for the entire root structure, making this the only permanent solution for missing teeth. The foundation of an implant is a titanium post inserted into healthy jawbone. This bone then gradually grows around the implant, firmly securing it into the jaw as an artificial root system. This structure allows the implant to hold a dental crown, bridge, or to act as a support for a denture appliance. Dentists have been using implants for over half a century now, and this form of treatment remains highly successful, over 90 percent.

There are various benefits to choosing dental implants, the primary one being that this permanent restoration will last forever with proper home
care. Dental implants are biocompatible and, therefore, do not irritate tissues in the mouth. This procedure produces a strong, stable restoration that looks and feels just like a natural tooth without requiring the modification of healthy teeth.

A dental implant can be used to replace a single tooth in a three-step process that includes:

Placement of the titanium implant in healthy jawbone

Affixing of the abutment, a small post that attaches the implant to a crown

Placement of the custom-made dental crown onto the abutment

Dental implants can replace multiple teeth, acting as an alternative to a traditional dental bridge. This can be accomplished with the placement of as few as two to six implants.

Denture wearers are gaining a whole new experience from what has been largely available for many years, with the implant-supported denture. With this denture alternative, a few dental implants are inserted into healthy jawbone, and the denture appliance clips into place. Using implant-supported dentures, patients find new freedom in eating all types of food, as well as in laughing, speaking, and smiling.
